Hello, hope everyone is ok. Please can I ask if anyone has extreme fatigue after Degaralex injection. My husband slept most of yesterday and had watery diarrhoea. His injection was on Wednesday and he’s just weaned off steroids. He’s been very strong about his diagnosis but yesterday he was very down about his symptoms. Any guidance would be appreciated
With thanks
Moira
Hi Moira.
Yeah I totally get what your husband is saying about the Degralix.I found after the injection the fatigue hits you like a brick wall and for a few days afterwards. Then it started to get more energy thereafter.
I started prostrap for my last injection and I’m finding this a lot worse for fatigue.Im going to ask oncology if I can got back to monthly Degralix as I had more energy when on it .
Hope this helps.
